All About TikTok

Known for its funny dance videos, TikTok has become one of the most popular social media apps in the world today. But the platform offers much more than these entertaining clips that helped it rise to fame. Users can find videos about almost anything on TikTok, from celebrity updates to breaking news. The app has even made news of its own. In 2024, the U.S. government passed a bill to ban TikTok unless it is sold. The move inspired debates about whether the decision violates Americans’ right to free speech. Part of the All About Social Media series, All About TikTok discusses the history, features, and future of the fun social media app.
